1. Communicable/Infectious Disease
as an illness caused by another living agent, or its products, that can be
spread from one person to another
an illness that arises from transmission of an infectious agent or its toxic
product from an infected person, animal or reservoir to a susceptible host,
either directly or indirectly through an intermediate plant or animal host,
vector, or environment.
2. Non Communicable/Infectious Disease
non-communicable diseases (NCDs) as chronic diseases with prolonged
duration and slow progression (WHO)
26. Global Burden of Communicable Disease 26
The world continues to be confronted by longstanding,
emerging, and reemerging infectious disease threats.
These threats differ widely in terms of severity and probability.
They also have varying consequences for morbidity and
mortality, as well as for a complex set of social and economic
outcomes

Within the last two centuries, these two slowly evolving
systems, microbial life and human life, were profoundly
modified in an unprecedented manner by a third player,
human civilization, with its global impact on the environment
through physical,chemical, societal, and climatic determinants
28. Noncommunicable diseases are now the largest cause of
death and disease worldwide, and numbers are on the rise.
Ever more people require treatment, and health-care costs are
growing.

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) lead to 70% mortality in
most of the developing countries and cardiovascular diseases
are the leading cause
35. Main Areas of Environmental Action to
Prevent Disease

36. By 2030, reduce by one third premature mortality from
non-communicable diseases through prevention and
treatment and promote mental health and well-being
(Target 3.4).

The Challenge of CD & NCD to achieve of
SDGs
By 2030, end the epidemics of AIDS, tuberculosis,
malaria and neglected tropical diseases and combat
hepatitis, water-borne diseases and other
